about
Growing up in Bogotá, Colombia I spent my
childhood playing outside, doing sports and
enjoying the world of animated movies and characters. As time went by, my obsession with animation grew with me; I had to be a
part of this world somehow. I started to research and to teach myself the basics of animation until I entered Animation Mentor where I studied Character Animation. I was featured multiple times in the institution’s showreel and won the Mentors Choice Award.
